The German trio (Kaelt-v,g; Harvest-v,b; and Naavl-d) Vargsheim returns with Erleuchtung, which lasts for about fifty minutes. The three current members play together in Vargsheim for many years, and a result is the perfect balance of each of them in their rather unique, unconventional Music.

Easily one of the most exhilarating bands to come down the pipe in a very long time, this UK quartet Uncle Acid And The Deadbeats once again showcase why they so deserve their abundance of critical acclaim with Mind Control.
